Mail Art

Just a few small watercolors from NY, trying to capture the changing of the leaves all around the edges of the lake.

Next year, I will try not to break my ankle before the fall foliage season begins, and maybe we will have some more paintings.

This year, it was abut all I could do to hobble down to the edge of a little lake in the woods at the southern tip of Fahnestock State Park in NY.

The good news is that the cast came off today, and we are having a few days of ‘Pastrami Summer’ here in Turgutreis, so I’m hoping to be standing up a little bit to do some more work on ‘the water paintings.’

But mostly I suppose I ought to be getting ready for the ‘Homesickness’ exhibit I’m opening up on 18 November at the Şevket Sabancı Cultural Center in Turgutreis (Bodrum). For information on joining the International Mail Art Exhibit, and seeing some of the work that has arrived,

Well, I said I wasn’t going to do anything else in the studio until after I got back from New York, what with needing to prepare for my gig at Olana and such, but I just had to finish a little piece of mail art so I can get it to Argentina before the 31 October deadline. The landscape was ready, it just needed a couple of “barcos” (or is it “barcas”? They say ships are female, don’t they?)

AND LET THERE BE A REMINDER HERE:

The “Homesickness” Mail Art Exhibit we are organizing in Bodrum is coming up – “allow 2 weeks for delivery”, they say, so I hope y’all have got your mojos and your P.O.’s working… can’t wait to check my mailbox (and I’m not talking google, here, either…) CLICK HERE FOR THE CALL FOR ENTRIES DETAILS
